This unusual painting adorned the chapel in which Ferdinand and Isabella were buried, Spanish Catholic monarchs known for banishing the Moors of Granada and uniting Spain.
The chapel next to the cathedral in Granada was created by the order of Isabella during the artist’s lifetime, in 1504. “Prayer for Chagie,” where the Mount of Olives is depicted as a rocky cliff fenced with a palisade, has something from the sculpture of the paintings of Mantegna, who died in 1506; The refined details of landscape and vegetation are characteristic of the most severe version of Botticelli’s late painting.
